Lovely cosy cottage with a beautiful view

We stayed for two nights. Julie was lovely, very informative and kept in touch to make sure all went well before and during our booking. We didn’t meet Pauline. The bed was very comfortable for us and the facilities good. Driving down the hill is interesting for those of us who are used to straighter roads.

Studio Apartment in Brooklyn, Wellington

The cosy studio apartment in Greater Wellington is an ideal place for a holiday break in the city. It is close to the local bus route into the CBD and has views looking across the harbour. Julie and Pauline are superb hosts, and you are made to feel very welcome upon your arrival. The apartment is very well appointed and is really comfortable. There is also literature on the main city attractions. For anyone visiting Greater Wellington, this makes a perfect place as a base to explore the many districts of the city. I would recommend this apartment to any traveller visiting the city.

Hilltop Heaven

The unit is extremely clean and cosy, the bed is super comfortable, and the shower pressure is fabulous. The view is magnificent and the road quiet. It borders the nature reserve so you can hear the birds. It is a climb up the hill - but where isn't a climb in Wellington city - and the height gives you the view and a sense of being up and out of the city stress. There is also a bus route not far away and it was only $20 taxi from Cambridge Tce in the city. The parking is directly outside the unit and was very safe with not a lot of car or foot traffic. I will definitely book again if I need to stay in Welington city.

Friendly hosts

The hosts were super friendly and helpful. The room was wonderful and very close to downtown Wellington activities. The only drawback is that to get to the property, you have to drive up very windy and narrow streets to the top of a hill.
